We're trying to install MOSS 2007
When running the "psconfig -cmd configdb -create ...", the command exit with
an error:

"Failed to create the configuration database.

An exception of type System.ArgumentException was thrown. Additional
exception information: <server,port> is an invalid or loopback address.
Specify a valid server address."

When checking the database server (SQL Server 2005), the database was
created by the command.
Anyone seen this before and know what to do?

The solution on the problem was to use odbcad32.exe and configure which port
the SQLserver used and then only submit the servername without port as
argument to
psconfig.
